Hi All,
When using FCoE, and it is not used for /
(when it is used for / this becomes the initrd's problem),
then rc.sysinit needs to bring up the FCoE fabric, in
order to do this rc.sysinit needs to know:
1) That FCoE is being used
2) Which NIC is connected to the FCoE SAN.
So we will need a config file for this. I can imagine
using /etc/sysconfig/fcoe
With a single line in there like:
NIC=eth0
The idea to use keyword <-> value pairs here is to have
this extensible. I'm open to suggestions, and esp to
input about how this is handled in other distro's / by
upstream provided scripts.
Regards,
Hans
